Giclée Print Quality 400 g/m² Canvas (Satin Gloss) + 1.2 in Borders for Stretching 100+ Year Colour Guarantee Free WorldWide Shipping!

Most people search for “canvas print” or “wall art” - but what they’re really looking for is a giclée print: a museum-grade reproduction of the original masterpiece, printed with archival pigment inks on fine art canvas.

Giclée (pronounced 'zhee-clay') is a French term meaning 'to spray,' referring to how ink is precisely sprayed onto canvas or paper, creating incredibly detailed fine art prints. It’s the gold standard in museum-quality printing, loved by artists, galleries, and museums worldwide.

Your artwork will be printed on premium canvas using vibrant archival inks, faithfully capturing every brushstroke and subtle nuance of Caillebotte's original. To ensure lasting beauty, each print is finished with a protective UV varnish. Far superior to ordinary posters, your canvas print will look and feel like a real painting, retaining its vivid colors and pristine details for more than 100 years.

About Giclée Fine Art Printing

Here's a simple trick: use painter’s tape to mark the print size directly on your wall, and step back to see how it feels. Generally, larger sizes around 36 in wide work beautifully in living rooms or open spaces. Medium sizes around 24 in fit nicely in bedrooms, hallways, or offices. Hanging it above a sofa? Choose a print that's roughly two-thirds the width of your couch. Still unsure? Start with our popular 15.2 × 21.7 in size—it fits comfortably in most spaces!

For a more artistic approach: choosing a size closer to the original artwork ensures you experience the artist’s intended visual impact and authenticity. Of course, since most of us don't live in spacious baroque palaces, your available space and personal taste should ultimately guide your decision.

In many cases, yes! If you need a specific size to fit a particular space or frame, feel free to reach out—we're happy to see what’s possible. Because each print is made to order, we can often accommodate custom dimensions as long as they respect the proportions of the original painting.Just send us an email at info@topartprint.com with the title of the artwork and the size you're looking for. We’ll get back to you quickly with options and pricing.

Good to know: when you choose the size of your artwork, the Print Size shown in the Your Selection box refers to the actual image area—that’s the part you’ll see once the canvas is stretched or framed.

The Total Size includes an additional 1.2 in white border on each side, added specifically for stretching.
So yes—this white border is added on top of your selected print size. You get the full artwork at the dimensions you picked, plus extra canvas to make stretching smooth and professional.

For example, if you select a 15.2 × 21.7 in print, the full canvas you receive will measure 17.6 × 24.0 in—giving your framer plenty of room to create a clean, gallery-quality stretch.

Both options are wonderful choices! Going unframed gives you maximum flexibility—you can take your print to a local framing shop for personalized options and expert advice tailored to your décor. This is especially great if you have specific design ideas or want to match existing frames in your home.

However, keep in mind that a print truly comes to life when properly framed. Art professionals often say: 'The frame contributes 30% of the artwork’s overall impact.' A well-chosen frame elevates and completes your print.

If you choose our framing option, your print will arrive professionally framed and ready to hang right out of the box. We focus exclusively on traditional framing methods, ensuring every artwork receives the respectful presentation it deserves—this is why we don't offer gallery wrap options.

Important shipping note: Due to courier restrictions, we can ship framed prints up to 28 in on the longest side. Larger prints will arrive safely rolled in a tube, ready for you to frame locally.

For more detailed information, please see our complete guide to fine art framing methods.

We've carefully selected this premium canvas because it brings out the absolute best in Caillebotte's work. Made from natural cotton with a 400 g/m² weight, it has just the right texture to capture every brushstroke and detail of the original painting.

What makes our canvas special? The satin-gloss finish. Think of how paintings look in museums with that beautiful varnish—that's exactly the effect we're going for. This glossy surface makes colors pop with incredible vibrancy while giving deep, rich blacks that matte canvases simply can't achieve. The result? Your print has that authentic 'real painting' look with extraordinary depth and life.

Plus, our canvas is acid-free and pH-neutral, so it'll stay beautiful for generations. We believe The Floor Scrapers deserves nothing less than this museum-quality treatment.

Every print is made just for you—no mass production here! Once you place your order, we begin creating your The Floor Scrapers print with care and precision.

  • Hang your print away from direct sunlight and high humidity

Please note: shipping costs are non-refundable.

For framed artworks: Since framed prints are handcrafted specifically for your order, returns are accepted only at our discretion and require a valid reason. But don’t worry—our support team is friendly, responsive, and ready to assist.

About the Painting

In late 19th-century Paris, as industrialization advanced and urban workers became more visible, painting them honestly remained a delicate matter. This work made its initial appearance at the 1875 Salon, where its plain reference to modern city laborers was greeted with some disdain. Traditionally, scenes of toiling peasants, as in Millet or Courbet, included a moral message; here, the viewer finds no explicit sermon. The artist’s approach, though rooted in academic rigor, challenged convention by placing contemporary workers in a setting that feels both startlingly direct and utterly uncompromised by sentimentality.

In compositional terms, the image invites the viewer’s eye to move across the surface in a steady glide, guided by the lines of the wooden floorboards as they recede toward open doors and a balcony beyond. The perspective, adjusted from a slightly elevated vantage point, ensures that the viewer shares the space of these laborers, not as a distant observer, but almost as a participant. One senses careful planning, the measured alignment of all elements, as if each position and angle were meticulously charted before transferring them to the canvas.

Technically, the artist’s academic training is evident in the balanced proportions, the controlled draftsmanship, and the sculptural modeling of the torsos. The bodies are reminiscent of classical forms, a nod to traditional life studies, yet placed in the utterly modern context of a renovated Parisian interior. Tools, wood shavings, and the subtle details of their work have been captured with a careful documentary eye, underscoring authenticity.

In terms of coloration, there is a muted interplay of warm browns, soft creams, and subdued greys. This understated palette eschews spectacle, instead allowing the textures and tones of the wood and flesh to register without distraction. Light enters from the background, infusing the scene with a soft glow that makes the workers’ environment tangible rather than theatrical.

What ultimately impresses is the frankness of the depiction. Three men, stripped to their waists, attend to the floor as if no one were watching, their concentration palpable, their bodies grounded in a world of real labor. It is a restrained yet incisive portrayal of urban life, devoid of moralizing, focused simply on the act of work itself.
